Yesterday my wife and I went to watch the filming of a TV show. One of the requirements was that all tech had to be left at home or surrendered at the door.
This is the longest stretch I’ve not had access to a phone and/or a watch since 2010 when I spent 10 days in Tanzania without a phone (Apple Watches weren’t a thing yet).
It meant that I really focused on the recording and what was happening. If I’d had my phone handy I would have been on and off it and would likely have missed some moments. a few times I thought about things I needed to do, or that I’d like to check, but I couldn’t (I probably should have taken a physical notepad)
It’s very tempting to try this for future planning sessions. Not necessarily no tech, but definitely no Wifi or Cellular connectivity to minimise interruptions either from others to me, or from me to others. If something needs checking, I can write it down and do it later.
